It wasn’t pretty, at all for the All-Stars but they did play Manchester United which is no cake walk. We had to expect the All-Stars would eventually lose a game like this before long. No doubt scheduling and other things got in the way for the league winning their summer showcase. I may go more…[continue reading]

I’ve never been the biggest fan of rebranding a team in any sport. To me its almost like contraction in sports, something that should be done at a last resort. But then again rebranding has done good for some teams over the years so I do see some value in teams remaking themselves into something…[continue reading]

It should come to no surprise for those who read this blog as we’ve mentioned it several times. Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber said yesterday in an interview with the Vancouver Sun that the league is aiming for the 20th club to be in New York City. “We are very focused on trying to…[continue reading]

Sometimes you gotta read between the lines. If you checked out the USA Today’s chat with MLS Commissioner Don Garber today you should be able to see exactly where the league is headed next in terms of expansion. When asked about where the league was going in terms of 20 or 24 teams, Garber was…[continue reading]

Lucky for them they still get all the lovely All-Star bonuses involved with the game. Goalkeepers Jimmy Nielsen (Kansas City)…[continue reading]

Our very own Brian Stevens was on hand last week in Kansas City for Manchester United’s stop in the mid-west. Below are his shots from the press conference, autograph session, training and of course the game itself. Enjoy!

Its Tuesday so that means it is time once again to close out another week with the weekly MLS Power Rankings. With another short week in MLS the movement wasn’t too great though a couple teams found ways to be shifty. I’ll keep the intro brief too. Feel free to comment on these rankings below.…[continue reading]

Its late-July and that means its trade season in Major League Soccer. Today we have a good one to discuss. The Chicago Fire have sent midfielder Justin Mapp to the Philadelphia Union in exchange for allocation money. The nine year veteran has spent most of his career with the Fire helping them win a US…[continue reading]

I love a good ad like this. With all the buzz in Kansas City yesterday as the Wizards beat Manchester United, let’s hope some folks that went to that game were able to take some time to see the new venue (yeah I’m totally unaware of where Arrowhead is in relationship to the new venue!).…[continue reading]
